what a great experience. This coffee shop has it all; style, ambiance, good service, and great drinks. It's comfortable and inviting and well decorated. I would highly recommend. read more

Really wanted to love this place because of the great reviews and amazing ambience/vibes, but the espresso was terrible and the pour over was watery. The espresso tasted over-extracted and burnt and the pour over left much to be desired. This might be more of a latte coffee place than espresso. On the plus side, the baristas were super nice! Next time, I would ask them to re-pull my shot. read more

Arrived in Spokane and was looking for a coffee shop that made matcha. The staff was really helpful helping mix flavors for a perfect mix. They also serve alcoholic coffee beverages. My boyfriend got the espresso martini. We've had many espresso martinis at different places and this is one of the best we've had. read more

Staff - super nice and helpful. Coffee art was so beautiful. Love the atmosphere. Large windows and lighting, a little loft , big community table. Love the unique seasonal coffee options for those seeking for adventure :) Feedback- wish the coffee was not lukewarm. They left the drip coffee unattended for 15 mins. We should have asked them to heat it up. read more

Really cool area - very big, very modern. Upstairs and downstairs. Great place to work or meet with people. The pastries are really good, I thought the cold brew was average - nothing crazy and a little expensive but seems normal. The baristas were friendly as well. Good spot read more

I stumbled upon this INCREDIBLE coffee shop, thanks to Yelp! My colleagues and I were in town for work. We were looking for a place to grab coffee and ended up at F1rstAvenue. Inside, you'll immediately notice how spacious this shop is. They even have a second floor loft-style work-study, lounge area over looking the first floor. In addition to a diverse menu of coffee and tea, they offer bakery items. Their in-house bakery is dedicated to serving gluten-free, vegan, and keto goodies -- we ordered their gluten free donut and a savory egg, cheese and pesto sandwich. You order at the counter and then find a spot to enjoy your drinks and food. The team members were professional and friendly. If you're looking for a coffee shop in Spokane, look no further than F1rst Avenue Coffee! read more

Gluten free heaven! Gf and vegan donuts and gf biscuits? Sign me up! I ordered the gf pecan maple donut and the savory biscuit. Both hit the spot and were delicious, you can barely tell they are gluten free. The service was prompt and helpful. While I took my order to go there is loads of seating and it looks like a great place to post up and work. Also got the Gingerbread Latte which was the perfect amount of spicy and sweet. read more

Love this place!!! Our go to coffee and breakfast noms when we visit Spokane. Homemade syrups...BEAUTIFUL ambience...great place to study/work....one of my favorite coffee shops ever read more

First Ave has some of the best food options of all the local coffee shops, and they're good about including vegan and gf options. I also really appreciate that their syrups are made in house which enables them to make creative flavor profiles. I hate spending $8 on a latte that uses syrups anyone can get. read more

Loved the pour over options! Delicious coffee! It's rare to see a large pourover selection, and this place has about 5 or more of them! Their lattes and other coffee options are also good too. I also got the loaded biscuit. I usually don't like biscuits, but i truly do like theirs. Perfect savory breakfast. Plenty of seating. Really cool upstairs seating as well. Friendly servers. Quick service. Overall, way better than Starbucks. read more

Love their coffee but it took me 25 minutes to get 2 iced lattes today. There was a little line but 4 employees behind the bar and only one slowly making coffee for everyone. No sense of urgency and I'll have to rethink where I grab coffee from before work now. read more

Amazing coffee - the best!! The staff is dually amazing - great recommendations (spot on) and friendly. Favorite place for now on. read more

I love this coffee house! Great vibe, ambience. Close to shopping and dining. I always get the keto donut - very good. I absolutely love their Cafe Sevilla - an orange cappuccino with steamed milk. My friend was with me last time and had a grilled cheese/pesto sandwich. She gave it the thumbs up - lots of "yums". Ample seating for groups or just on your own. Great place to read a book or relax and enjoy good conversation with friends. You can purchase bags of their coffee and there is a gift area as well. 10 out of 10 - highly recommend. read more

From floating instruments to art pieces you can buy, this place just has a good vibe. It has a lot of really cool merch to but when you walk in and breakfast items as well! They make their coffee fresh, with an extensive menu of drinks and pastries. If you love starbucks, this might not be your spot because this isn't quick and easy coffee The drinks may not look pretty, but that's not to say they're not good! I got the Maple Brown Sugar latte and my husband got a caramel latte and they both were great! Plus we got a coffee cake and a chocolate chip cookie and that was the real star. I loved my coffee cake, it was warm and soft but his cookie...wasn't really my favorite tbh Now, the thing is, I'm not really a coffee person--I'm more of a Red Bull girlie. But this place came highly recommended, so I had to give it a try! Honestly, the coffee was really good! It wasn't too strong, but it wasn't too sweet either. They make it exactly how you want it, even if you're a Keurig coffee drinker like me! But the star of the whole experience was really the coffee cake! It was warm, kinda just crumbled, and tasted freshly baked. Overall, if you're a coffee lover, you'd love this place! If you're a Starbucks lover, this menu might not have the creativity you're used to, but it's definitely worth a try. We paid $16 for everything, and I'd give it a solid 4 stars :) read more

I'm in love with First Ave. (I think of the Minneapolis music venue when I say that). But let's talk about coffee. When they say damn good coffee they mean it. This coffee is Agent Cooper "damn fine good". But I don't drink mine black as midnight on a moonless night....I do like a little room. The moment you roll up you'll be greeted by lovely staff to brighten your day. The bar is huge and you can belly up to enjoy your potion. They have coffee. Teas. Golden milk. Matcha. Even sparlking Rishi tea drinks from my former city of Milwaukee. Hello Wisconsin. The space is open and bright. It has an adorable loft as well. Lots of swanky lighting and wood tables. Let's talk about Roast House coffee because that's what they serve and it's so amazing. Sustainability is their priority and that's why they focus on the farmers. And they don't want you to drink nasty ass chemicals. Roast House deserves me to write them their own review but just know their coffee is sold and brewed here. My lattes and cortados are always perfect. Espresso pulled heavenly and the milk steamed to the proper temperature that leaves it to marry the Espresso in perfect bliss. They don't have soy milk. Many places have gone away for many reasons but I still prefer organic soy milk over the other alternatives. This is topic for in person discussions I sub oatmilk and it gets the job done. I can tell the barista care. And that's important to me. Oh and did I mention the treats. Yes. Divine and delicious house made treats. That coffee cake is epic. Biscuits with eggs baked right inside. What? They also have so much swag. From fun coffee mugs to cute winter chooks....or as y'all call them here in the greater PNW....beanies. C'mon y'all. Get in here. read more

I've tried F1rst Ave about 3 times now and their coffee is just okay which is unfortunate since I love their ethical practices! They make their syrups in house which I also love so much, I just wish they were more flavorful for the price point. There is a drop in space for those with wfh and even a large meeting area. Their pastries are what I go for though! And their associates are kind and very friendly. I'll stop in to try a few more flavors but for now they're sitting at a 3 for me. read more

F1rst Avenue Coffee - menus on the wall - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Spokane, Washington

Good enough gluten free options. Service very friendly. It's next to the Montvale hotel and you get 10% off at first avenue when you stay at the hotel next door. The coffee and tea is good albeit a little pricey. The gluten free cheddar onion biscuit was so salty I could barely eat it. That suggests whoever is cooking is an avid smoker of cigarettes as this habit usually yields a chef adding far too much salt. The gluten free panini was not on bread but rather a sort of flatbread which was good. The pesto was nice and garlicky but again so salty!!!! Still a good option for a gluten free person however it's not super safe since they put them all in the glass case next to each other with no protection on the gf items. read more

Coffee was good. Also had a thumbprint cookie that was delicious. Plenty of space to sit and enjoy the coffee.

Crisp and clean shop with high ceilings and spread out seating from the sunlit front to the coffee bar to the upstairs (kid-free!) loft. It struck me walking in that this place would be able to handle a dry cappuccino, and my gut was correct. These baristas know their stuff! They also have an inviting array of sweet treats up front. My friend ordered the keto cheese biscuit (I think it was the only non-sweet item in the display case), and the bite I tried was quite good. Service was friendly. Checks off all my boxes. read more

Gosh! I wish I wasn't writing this. First Avenue coffee was one of my favorite places in Spokane. One of the only places in town. That was aware of additives and ingredients. Also, they have some of the best customer service in town. Unfortunately, this is shifted with the new owners. I just went for a third visit. That disappointed me. They've shifted two ingredients like a super sweet, golden milk or sugary glutenous baked. When I asked to give them feedback, they offered no Clare channels to do that with a lot of attitude. What a bummer! read more

I moved to Spokane in July and haven't had a good cup of coffee until today. The barista was so kind (even to the not kind people in front of me), kept a smile on their face and made the best cappuccino I have had in months. The biscuit is also delish! Can't wait to return. read more

I walked here from our hotel for a quick coffee to go! I LOVED this place! Friendly staff, live music in the background and delicious coffee. I wished I had time to hang out there longer. read more

The good and the bad. We were staying next door at the Montvale hotel so this was a convenient coffee shop. The interior is nicely decorated and very spacious. The bad: we ordered two different types of coffees and they were both a let down with it's bitter flavor. The good: actually great I picked out a slice of coffee cake and it was probably one of the best coffee cakes we've ever tasted. Come for the pastries as they are unique and top notch. read more

Fabulous staff, beautiful café, delicious coffee and menu items. 10/10 recommend as your go-to Spokane coffee shop!

Roast house is my favorite coffee in town. I absolutely love it! The smell, taste, everything. This space at 1st avenue coffee is so cool. It's trendy, relaxing, open, well lit, and just comfy. I actually had my baby shower here years ago - 4 1/2 years now - and it was amazing. The staff, the location, and everything was great. I continue to come here when I'm downtown in the morning for spin. Go to my spin class, drink coffee, and just relax before getting back to my life. I love how environmentally friendly they are and their general stance on everything. #changetheworld - I will continue to buy their coffee for home as well. Thank you for being awesome! read more

Definitely set up for coffee, less so for breakfast (or any) food. That said, 'coffee' is in the name and 'breakfast' is not so I can't really complain. And since the coffee was great, four stars. Space is stark; fixtures are interesting. Efficient staff. I asked for cream for my mug of drip coffee and was handed the barista's plastic half gallon jug (like from the grocery store). The fork that came with my (not so breakfast-y) sandwich was dirty. I would go back for coffee. read more

F1rst Avenue Coffee - Dos Americanos - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Spokane, Washington

Wanted to get some fresh donuts, and we were only a couple blocks away from First Ave Coffee. I tried the one with the peanut butter cup in the middle, husband tried the oatmeal bar and then bought a maple one too. We didn't get coffee there, but they had plenty of options like a pour over and espressos. The donuts were dense and tasted cake like. Not sure if they are baked or fried, but tasted good either way. The ganache on the peanut butter donut was rich and very chocolatey, and the peanut butter cup was a good balance. I enjoyed the ambiance of the place too, pretty chill and a little bougie. read more

Super nice staff. What a lovely coffee shop with great food, great, coffee, and wonderful ambience. The gentleman with the curly mustache who helped us was just lovely. My daughter wolfed down the ham and cheese and she normally doesn't like mustard at all, but it was perfect for her. I would much rather come here than a chain store just a block down. read more

Love this place!! The baristas know what they're doing. Such a fun spot to hang out Owner/operator, homegrown places are the best.

I've been there twice now. The first time I was by myself and enjoying a pour over while having a nice conversation with the barista. The second time I took my wife and we had coffee and a pastry. It has a very pleasing atmosphere that we enjoyed and now it's our favorite coffee shop in town. read more
